Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fermentation tanks, and in particular to a vertical fermentation tank for fermenting soybean paste. Background Technology

[0002] In the preparation of soybean paste, the raw materials need to be put into a fermentation tank for fermentation, and vertical fermentation tanks are commonly used for soybean paste fermentation.

[0003] When using a vertical fermentation tank to prepare soybean paste, yeast and raw materials need to be added to the fermentation tank. Fermentation is then carried out continuously through stirring and temperature control. After fermentation, the fermented soybean paste is bottled and stored in storage tanks. To facilitate subsequent fermentation and paste production, the fermentation tank needs to be cleaned. Existing fermentation tanks have a cleaning pipe at the top. During cleaning, an external water pipe is connected to the tank for flushing. However, because the existing cleaning pipe is a straight pipe, the water spray nozzle cannot be directed towards the side walls of the tank, making it difficult to thoroughly clean the inner walls. This incomplete cleaning affects subsequent fermentation. Therefore, this solution proposes a vertical fermentation tank for soybean paste fermentation to address these problems.

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Example 1: This utility model provides the following... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The vertical fermentation tank for fermenting soybean paste shown includes:

[0033] Fermentation tank 1, with a feeding pipe 101 installed on the top of fermentation tank 1;

[0034] Specifically, an air inlet pipe 2 is provided in the middle of the fermentation tank 1, and an air outlet pipe 3 is provided at the bottom of the fermentation tank 1. The air inlet pipe 2 and the air outlet pipe 3 are connected around the side wall of the fermentation tank 1, and the air inlet pipe 2 and the air outlet pipe 3 are used to introduce hot and cold media to control the temperature of the fermentation tank 1.

[0035] It should be noted that the fermentation tank 1 is based on the vertical fermentation tank of model 5641. Through the design of the feeding pipe 101, the raw materials and yeast required for the fermentation of soybean paste can be put into the interior of the fermentation tank 1. The air inlet pipe 2 and the air outlet pipe 3 are arranged around the side wall of the fermentation tank 1 and are connected. In this way, when it is necessary to heat or cool the fermentation tank 1, the heat medium or cold medium is introduced into the through structure of the air inlet pipe 2 and the air outlet pipe 3 to control the temperature of the fermentation tank 1.

[0036] Furthermore, a discharge pipe 4 is provided in the middle of the bottom of the fermentation tank 1, and support legs 5 are provided around the outer wall of the bottom of the fermentation tank 1.

[0037] It should be noted that by setting the support legs 5, the fermentation tank 1 is supported off the ground, so that Fang Baini can unload the material through the discharge pipe 4.

[0038] A stirring mechanism is vertically connected to the fermentation tank 1 and is used for stirring inside the fermentation tank 1.

[0039] Specifically, the stirring mechanism includes:

[0040] A stirring motor 6 is installed at the top of the fermentation tank 1;

[0041] The stirring rod 601 is driven to the output end of the stirring motor 6, and the bottom of the stirring rod 601 is vertically rotated and inserted into the interior of the fermentation tank 1.

[0042] It should be noted that the output end of the stirring motor 6 can be connected to the stirring rod 601 through a reducer. In this way, the output of the stirring motor 6 drives the stirring rod 601 to rotate. The part of the stirring rod 601 that is inserted into the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1 is equipped with a blade structure. Under the rotation of the stirring rod 601, the blade structure stirs inside the fermentation tank 1, thereby fully mixing the yeast and raw materials to ensure uniform fermentation.

[0043] Example 2: This utility model provides the following... Figure 3-6 The cleaning guide mechanism shown is applied to a vertical fermentation tank for soybean paste fermentation in Embodiment 1. The cleaning guide mechanism is located on the side of the top of the fermentation tank 1. The cleaning guide mechanism includes a guide part and a clamping part. The clamping part is located on the inner wall of the guide part. The clamping part is used to clamp the cleaning pipe that extends into the fermentation tank 1. The guide part is used to guide the pipe that extends into the fermentation tank 1.

[0044] Specifically, a cleaning pipe 7 is provided on the side of the top of the fermentation tank 1, and the guide part is inserted into the cleaning pipe 7.

[0045] Specifically, the guidance department includes:

[0046] The guide bend 8 is slidably inserted into the cleaning tube 7. The guide bend 8 has a guide groove 801 through its side wall, and the clamping part is located on the inner wall of the guide groove 801.

[0047] The inner ring wall of the rotary bearing 9 is fitted onto the bottom of the guide bend 8, and the outer ring wall of the rotary bearing 9 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cleaning tube 7.

[0048] It should be noted that the top of the guide bend 8 is a straight pipe structure with the bottom and top inclined at 45°-60°. In this way, the pipe head of the external water pipe inserted in the guide groove 801 of the guide bend 8 is guided to face the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1. Thus, when rinsing with boiling water, the external water pipe can rinse the inner side wall of the fermentation tank 1.

[0049] The rotating bearing 9 allows the guide bend 8 to rotate, which in turn allows the external water pipe to rotate inside the fermentation tank 1, thereby circumferentially rinsing the inside of the fermentation tank 1 and ensuring that the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1 is thoroughly rinsed.

[0050] Furthermore, a limiting groove 802 is provided on the outer wall of the guide bend 8, and a limiting slider 901 is fixedly connected to the inner ring wall of the rotary bearing 9. The limiting slider 901 is slidably inserted into the limiting groove 802.

[0051] It should be noted that by restricting the sliding interlocking of the slider 901 and the restricting groove 802, the guide bend 8 can slide vertically within the cleaning pipe 7, thereby adjusting the insertion depth of the external water pipe within the fermentation tank 1, thus further ensuring the thorough cleaning of the inner wall of the fermentation tank 1.

[0052] Furthermore, the inner wall of the guide groove 801 is provided with a storage groove, and the clamping part includes:

[0053] The extrusion ball 10 is rolled and interlocked at the opening of the storage slot;

[0054] An elastic pressure block 11 is disposed in the storage groove, and the elastic pressure block 11 is used to push the squeeze ball 10 to roll away from the storage groove.

[0055] It should be noted that, through the cooperation of the extrusion ball 10 and the elastic pressure block 11, under the elastic extrusion of the elastic pressure block 11, no more than half of the ball part of the extrusion ball 10 is exposed in the guide groove 801, thereby restricting the space in the guide groove 801, and thus elastically extruding the outer wall of the external water pipe on the inner wall of the guide groove 801, so that the external water pipe can be better guided by the guide bend 8.

[0056] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
